    Since the introduction of paid parking here I have refused to visit. It was already one of the worst managed and laid out facilities in the country and they now expect us to pay to visit! Ridiculous. With the current move to online retailers you would think Liffey Valley would try to encourage customers to use a bricks and mortar store, not drive them away. When physical retail is finally killed off by the online retailers, history will point to greed such as this as a major contributing factor.

    Was never a fan of this place but nearest M&S was convinient. Unfortunately the parking fees totally killed it. 2.50 for the first 3h and after that 2.50 for each hour. Prepare for another half hour in a queue to pay for the carpark. No cash option, just cards. Will definitely go somewhere else next time.

    Absolutely Joke. PAID PARKING, when all the shops are scattered everywhere. Customers are spending their money in this shopping centre. Surely that should be good enough… but no. I used to attend the cinema once a week, not anymore. I’ll avoid this place like the plague. And if you have the mind set of “it’s only €2.50” you’re also the problem. The prices are sickening.. imagine running in to penny’s for 10 minutes to return an item an you’ve to pay €2.50 🤦‍♀️ 0-3 hours - €2.50 3-4 hours - €5.00 4-5 hours - €7.50 5-6 hours - €10.00 6-7 hours - €12.50 (Max Day Rate)There is a flat rate evening charge of €2.50 between the hours of 6pm - 8am. Swords - Free for 0-2 hours Maynooth SC - Free for 0-3 hours Dundrum - €3 for 0-3 hours (3 floors and every shop under one roof). North side SC - FREE Omni SC - FREE Kildare Village - FREE Blanchardstown SC - FREE

    My mother bought lovely curtains here in Harry Corrys. The staff were so helpful and kind looking after my mother, gave her great advice on her selection. Well done to all the ladies .

    This place is a bit of a kip. If you're going to charge for the carpark, try getting a number plate recognition system that actually works. The spaces are tiny, obviously to squeeze more people in. What was wrong with the angled spaces that left it easier to actually exit the vehicle?

    Lots of reviews confusing the retail park with the main centre, this is the separate shops outside the main centre. Currys, Halfords, The Range, Maxi Zoo, Costa and McDonald's are the main shops i use. Don't use Harry Corrys and the Party Store are also there Points knocked off because of parking. Since the main centre introduced paid parking there are more people parking here and walking to the main centre. Car park has 2 hour rule but it's is seriously flawed. If you park in the morning, go home and come back again in the afternoon you are running the risk of getting clamped. You still have to pay the remove clamp and then challenge afterwards in the hope you have evidence to prove to weren't there for 2 hours. Had to find the guy scanning number plates to tell him we had just came back and to be fair he was very nice about it and didn't scan our number plate. Get the parking sorted and there will be more stars

    The new parking charges are the real downside to Liffey Valley Car Park The first 30 minutes should be free No cash accepted but they will except a voucher but you have to spend a minimum of €10 which is madness Its €2.50 minimum charge just to park your car for up to 3 hours then €2.50 per hour afterq Apart from the parking excellent selection of shops and restaurants Nice food court upstairs

    Great place to shop with a great range of shops. Sadly, the roadworks mean that it's a nightmare to get in and out of the place. The introduction of traffic lights and a new road layout have only served to increase the traffic delays. I only shop there when absolutely necessary as a result of the issues.

    For once, i wasnt blown out of it aymt the main entrance, they really should architect some modular building or tree canopy to prevent the wind howlibg aroubd the front entrance area in this photo, would be more inviting outside

  • 4/5 Patrick J O B. 2 months ago on Google • 195 reviews New
    Great selection of stores too bad they are charging for parking so take the bus! Traffic can be a nightmare so unless I need a large item I use the buses which are super reliable on the TFI app.

    No parking fee.

    Place is absolutely massive. Plenty of shops even more than enough.

  • 4/5 Eamonn O. 5 months ago on Google • 136 reviews
    Much improved on how it used to be, but parking is silly. They delay everyone if people have issues with parking fees. I paid for someone just to get them to open the gate!

  • 4/5 Declan Q. 1 year ago on Google
    Reviews/photos for this location seem to confuse it for the main shopping center. The retail park is adjacent to the shopping center and does not have a food court, cinema or TK max. It does have large retail outlets such as Currys, Halfords, Argos and the Range. There is a Costa Coffee and McDonald's. The car park is large and there is almost always spaces available.

  • 3/5 Nicola F. 1 year ago on Google
    It was fine but none of the tables were cleared from other customers, nice big airy space though

  • 4/5 Nanette O. 1 year ago on Google
    Free parking. Has a McDonalds and Costa coffee on site. I have never felt the car park was unsafe or my car was at risk here. It's pretty busy. The Range, which replaced woodies has a wide range of products for the home at a good price but is not a garden center or DIY store. Halfords is great and the staff are very helpful for any automotive or bicycle needs you have. There's an Argos. You can check stock online before you go. Maxi zoo sells most pet products. This maxi zoo does not sell pet animals but it does have feeder insects.

    This place has really developed over the years. I actually delivered here in 97/98 when it was a hole in the ground. The management really do know what they are doing here. I have B&Q Halfords Currys and Costa as my creche and my wife can blissfully shop in the centre. Having said that I like my clothes and Marks and Next are my shops of choice. Used to be Zara too but they don't have a mens department or maybe I'm missing something. Of course Boots is another favourite for my grooming items. No I'm no new man in fact I'm typical the fact that all 3 shops I frequently go to are at the entrances of either end how cool is that. Parking is now pay and park or park and pay and I certainly do not have an issue with that. The technology is good and you can pay at a kiosk at the entrances once you know your reg, I don't but I took a picture of it on my phone or you can pay with your debit card but not with Revolut. The whole lay out has changed but give it a while you will get used to it. I live on the northside and close to Blanch but I always go to LVP so that says a lot.

  • 5/5 Danuta K. 6 months ago on Google
    If you looking for good places with lots of shops, coffee shops, restaurants and a Cinema ....you just find them :) I am here a few times in month and always find something for me or my Family :)

  • 3/5 Ilamurugu S. 1 year ago on Google
    They should allow at least one hour parking or they should charge 1 euro for first 2 hours. 15 min is not sufficient to collect any food or ordered items from the shopping center

  • 1/5 Bernard Q. 1 year ago on Google
    I was in there with my wife i asked for a latte and my wife had tea we also had some cake the girl that served me she basically just through the latte at me absolutely no manners they need to be trained properly.

  • 4/5 Bernd B. 1 year ago on Google
    Completely self-contained shopping experience near Liffey Valley, some large shops, Costa and McDonald's. Not overly exciting, but useful for shopping.

  • 4/5 Mantas S. 10 months ago on Google
    Gives some variety of the shops but no much to choose from. The awful thing is the traffic if you are unlucky to leave after 4.30 you will be stuck in traffic most of the time. Plenty of parking space.

  • 4/5 Beena S. 1 year ago on Google
    Liffey valley is an iconic shopping mall, has become a second home to me! Only thing is that prices have SKY rocketed recently buy that usnt obv liffey valley's fault... still amazing place defo worth visiting

  • 2/5 Muhammad N. 1 year ago on Google
    Very expensive. It is not for middle class people like us. Another, thing is that they charge you for shopping which is very greedy.

  • 5/5 Cristina G. 1 year ago on Google
    Has multiple stores,and food court the bad thing about it is the parking,spaces are smaller and I don't think 2,50 euro/hour is reasonable price. Other places are chargin 1 euro/ hour.

  • 4/5 Ian R. 8 months ago on Google
    Shopping Centre is really good, decent shops and nice selection of restaurants.. cinema is great... The only problem is the paid parking. 2.50 for 3 hours.. cardless..it can be slow to get out soemtimes as exits get blocked..

  • 3/5 Derek M. 8 months ago on Google
    Sadly, some of the stores in the retail park have closed, the most notable being Argos.

  • 5/5 Kristaps V. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice renovation n the carpark, you don't need to pay for it as of March 2023

  • 4/5 Debbie F. 1 year ago on Google
    Such a wide variety of shops. The only negative thing is Sports direct. Great shop full of great bargains but the worst customer service. Staff simply don't want to be there.

  • 5/5 David F. 9 months ago on Google
    It’s still the best Shopping Centre in the Country and the new parking system is really good in particular if you go into the Cinema.

  • 1/5 Adam c. 11 months ago on Google
    Many shops are either closing or closed down. Footfall has definitely decreased. Would rather go to Blanch or even the godforsaken Dundrum shopping centre instead of here

  • 4/5 Andreas K. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice shopping centre with everything you'd need.Airy with good safety measures in place for Covid. Only niggle is that the food court has only limited choices and of course only takeaways due to situation.

  • 5/5 Jim L. 3 years ago on Google
    Good stores for different options

    Ok..

  • 4/5 Eamonn S. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice place for a stroll. Too many clothes shops for my liking, but that's obviously the point of this place. Good range of eateries too, should be something for everyone.

  • 5/5 Delta O. 2 years ago on Google
    This is the place where I go locally to shop, everything that I need is here!

  • 2/5 mary R. 2 years ago on Google
    Most shops there won't take cash. And I was dying for a drink of sparkling water. And been diabetic there was nothing even in the cinema, 5 guys as well would not take cash so I was stuck with milkshakes. This was at 9pm at night getting ready to seeing a movie

  • 4/5 Orla L. 2 years ago on Google
    Some range of shops, lovely layout too but don't go at a busy time, trying to find a parking space can take ages...

  • 5/5 Caolainn M. 2 years ago on Google

  • 5/5 theresa g. 1 year ago on Google
    Liffey Valley is a great Centre. The parking can be quite challenging as it is so busy. Great shops and a fantastic selection of Restaurants. Brilliant if you are coming up to Dublin from the South

  • 5/5 Stephen L. 1 year ago on Google
    Fabulous shopping centre so spacious and all your shopping needs under the one roof. Plenty of parking to especially now they're updating the area..

  • 3/5 Paul M. 2 years ago on Google
    Road works all over, way too busy. Curry's very low on the item I wanted, and a lot if stock either on the wrong shelf, or incorrectly priced!!! Couldn't be bothered to go back!

  • 5/5 Jackie Mc Manus (. 1 year ago on Google
    Has everything shop and food wise. Some beautiful food court and Big Huge Penny's with Dog clothes and toys n some dog threats. Brilliant👍👍 for human and our FURFRENS. Lubs n Cuddles Roxy and Mum xoxo 🥰🥰😘😘💙💙💙💙

  • 5/5 Durga Devi V. 2 years ago on Google
    Getting crowded now a days. Struggled to find a parking spot due the construction work. Go directly towards the M&S side for easy parking as the other entrances are all full during weekends.

  • 5/5 Philip C. 1 year ago on Google
    Great set up. You can see everything as they work. Spotless garage. Very pleasant people too. Very helpful.

  • 4/5 Fran D. 1 year ago on Google

  • 5/5 Geoffrey C. 1 year ago on Google
    Nice Costa to while away a bit of time while waiting for the shopping members of the family. All the typical Costa offerings available and nice friendly staff

  • 4/5 Sinead C. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this Coffee hub in the retail park of liffey valley, the one nearest to the Mcdonalds drive through. NOT the one in liffey valley itself! Sometimes people get mixed up on this. It's bright spacious, indoor and outdoor seating and they do great sandwiches, rolls and cakes, hot or cold and a nice range of frappe and the coffee of course...

  • 1/5 Jillian B. 1 year ago on Google
    Parking is all over the place, you can't get into half the car parks it's a joke! I'll be going elsewhere from now on. They shouldn't be charging until the are up and running.

  • 1/5 Valdas J. 1 year ago on Google
    Pet's not friendly place. Even if you hold a puppy in your hands, they asking you to leave. Also child spilt kids frapuchino, as the lid was badly closed, they havent offered a replacement, had to buy new one.
